During a sketch on Saturday Night Live (SNL), the actress told the audience that she wasn't embarrassed by what happened to her anymore: "At a certain point you stop being embarrassed and start being you."

"All they did was release some nude pics of me - which is nothing, because, I don't know if you all know this about me, but I ain't shy," she said.

"I am very comfortable with who I am. I am an open book," she said, before saying that anyone who wanted to see her naked could "just ask."

The actress then said that words on the Internet couldn't hurt her, and recalled an anecdote from the past. "Do you think some words on the internet can hurt me? I once had a crazy bitch try to beat me with a shovel at a bus stop because I took her spot on the bench."

She continued later: "At a certain point you stop being embarrassed and start being you. And I have been me for 49 years.

"The only person who can hack me is me. And my firewall is a crazy bitch with a shovel."
